Any hunter under 16 must be accompanied by a licensed hunter at all times.

During youth gun deer hunts, any hunter under 16 must be accompanied by an adult

Wheeler does not limit who gets a permit as long as they are legally able to hunt. You don't "apply" for a permit, you just go pick one up, after you read through the rules you sign on the dotted line and you keep that with you as your permit. They won't be available for next year's hunt until Aug or Sept.

Good luck!


I bought an ATV to get to my hunting area, now half the fun of hunting is the ride in and out.

Don't forget that in addition to the WMA permit, you'll need your WMA license, $16 this year IRC. This is, of course, in addition to the the regular yearly hunting license.

Good luck.

The requirement for the adult to be 25 years old applies to "youth deer or turkey hunts" as covered in part (2) of the rule.

Part (1) of the rule requires the youth to be accompanied by a licensed hunter during all other hunts with the exception of "youth deer and turkey hunts" in part (2) of the rule. No age requirement is listed for the licensed hunter in part (1) of the rule which applies to normally scheduled hunts.

Wheeler is not a WMA it is a Refuge so you DO NOT have to have a WMA license!!!!


I had much rather be tried by twelve than carried to my grave by six!!!!

Don't recall saying it was. The title of the thread is "WMA land" not Wheeler land.

So chill out and learn to read.
